Notes
Press release: "In a panel discussion recorded at the First Fiction festival (Sussex University, January 2012) author Sue Eckstein discusses the problems inherent in creating autobiographies with graphic novelists Nicola Streeten and Anuerin Wright and how creators can subvert and overcome these. Nicola's book Billy, me and you and Aneurin's Things to Do in a Retirement Home Trailer Park couldn't be more different in their approaches, with the former combining cartoons, diary drawings and scrapbook montage and the latter depicting the author's friends and family as anthropomorphic creatures in domestic settings. (Recorded by Nicola Streeten, edited and introduced by Alex Fitch)"
